the clutch thing you are thinking about is the infamous Hill Holder Clutch.
It means you can hold your scoob on an incline with just your foot on the brake

I was taking the micky

When you stop on a hill, you fully depress the clutch pedal and brake pedal. As long as you keep the clutch fully depressed, braking force is retained by the Hill-Holder System, and you can remove your right foot from the brake pedal without fear of the vehicle rolling backward. When it’s time to go, your right foot will be free to depress the accelerator pedal as you pull away. As you gradually release the clutch, the brakes release automatically.

Feels weird the first time you do it
